project update- seat post

well it started like this, blocking the frame up and marking the cut area

cut made

new seat post with a sleeve for strength

new post test fitted, all good at this point

new post then trimmed to fit

nice amount of clearence

then it all goes wrong, i spot the faint line of a liner in the seat post casting, and decide the if i can get it out and run the seat post through the casting it will be a lot stronger than just welding underneath. unfortunately this means remaking the seat post and cut out.

another seat post made and liner now removed, i knocked the new seat post through the casting, only to find it would not line up with the old part of the seat post

after a lot of swearing i finally managed to get the to together, just needs welding now.
